| 2 | =============================== |
| 3 | |
| 4 | Change the m68k bit numbering for bitmasks to match the bit numbering |
| 5 | used by all other ext2 implementations. (This change was requested by |
| 6 | the m68k kernel development team.) |
| 7 | |
| 8 | Support (in-development) filesystem format revision which supports |
| 9 | (among other things) dynamically sized inodes. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | Fixed a bug in the ext2 library so that an intelligent error is |
| 12 | returned if mke2fs is run with a ridiculously small number of blocks |
| 13 | for a partition. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | Fixed a bug in the ext2 library which required that the device be |
| 16 | openable in read/write mode in order to determine its size. This |
| 17 | caused e2fsck -n to require read/write access when it was not |
| 18 | previously necessary. |
| 19 | |
| 20 | Fixed a bug in e2fsck which casued it to occasionally fail the test |
| 21 | suite depending on which version of the floating point library it was |
| 22 | using. |
| 23 | |
| 24 | Fixed a bug in e2fsck so that it now halts with a fatal error when |
| 25 | certain superblock consistency checks fail. Previously it continued |
| 26 | running e2fsck, with some potential confusing/damaging consequences. |
| 27 | |
| 28 | Added new flag to fsck which allows the root to be checked in parallel |
| 29 | with other filesytems. This is not the safest thing in the world to |
| 30 | do, but some system administrators really wanted it. |
| 31 | |

| 33 | E2fsprogs 1.02 (January 16, 1996) |
| 34 | ================================= |
| 35 | |
| 36 | Fix to allow e2fsprogs to be compiled on recent 1.3 (pl45+) kernels. |
| 37 | |
| 38 | Change e2fsck to print statistics of how many non-contiguous files are |
| 39 | on the system. Note that a file which is larger than 8k blocks, it is |
| 40 | guaranteed to be non-contiguous. |
| 41 | |
| 42 | In mke2fs, print a warning message if a user tries to format a whole |
| 43 | disk (/dev/hda versus /dev/hda1). If a user really wants to format a |
| 44 | whole disk, the -F (force) option forces mke2fs to format a whole disk |
| 45 | as a filesytem. |
| 46 | |
| 47 | Fix a bug in fsck where in some cases it might start checking |
| 48 | partitions in the next pass before it finishes checking partitions in |
| 49 | the current pass. This still won't cause two partitions on the same |
| 50 | disk will be checked, so it's rarely a problem in real life. |
| 51 | |
| 52 | Patch lsattr so that it won't hang when checking a named pipe. |
| 53 | |
| 54 | Minor compilation fixes: |
| 55 | * Fix the order of libraries that were linked in debugfs. |
| 56 | * Allow the sources to be compiled with -ansi turned on. |
